Specialized Woodbury Family Law Attorneys Take a Results-Oriented Approach to Building Relationships With Clients

We know that selecting a family law attorney to advocate for your future is an important decision. At Smedley Law Group, P.C., we focus on building relationships with our clients. We’re a full-service family law firm that will be here to help as your needs change over time.

Family law is different from other legal practice areas. You don’t simply resolve one issue and go your separate ways. Even in a divorce, the lives of the people involved often will remain entangled for years to come, if not permanently. It’s important to choose a lawyer you can trust with your near-term needs and overarching objectives for the future.

We can help with issues involving:

Divorce. Divorce involves lots of moving parts—and your relationship with your former spouse may not be entirely over once you sign the papers. Prenuptial agreements also may not reflect your reality. The alimony arrangements you agreed upon during the divorce proceedings may become unfair as circumstances change over time. Our family law attorneys can help with these and other divorce-related issues.

Child custody and parenting time. Child custody arrangements can be key to providing stability for your family. That being said, children grow older and parents make life decisions that may involve relocating, for example. In short, your family’s needs probably will change—and your child custody arrangement must be modified to keep up. We can help with negotiating the original arrangement and child custody modifications.

Child support. Your child’s needs will morph over time—and your financial circumstances may shift as well. We can help you negotiate a fair child support arrangement. We can also help with college contribution issues and modifying a child support agreement that no longer reflects your financial reality.

Regardless of the family law matter you’re faced with, getting legal help is key to protecting your rights. We want to help you see the entire picture—so our number one priority is advocating to accomplish your goals. Because we have decades of experience, we know the right questions to ask to move your matter toward an effective resolution.

Our attorneys at Smedley Law Group, P.C. are here to help. Contact us today to see how we can protect your family.

Frequently Asked Questions About Family Law Issues in South Jersey

FAQ: Will I have to go to court to resolve my family law matter?

The need for court intervention depends upon your unique situation. A family law matter can become so acrimonious that the only solution is to seek court intervention. At Smedley Law Group, P.C., we view litigation as a last resort. We focus on helping our clients resolve conflicts in a more neutral setting, avoiding the trauma and expense of court.

That said, we’re always prepared to advocate on your behalf in court. Family law matters in New Jersey are handled in the Family Division of the Superior Courts. These issues are all heard by Family Division judges.

FAQ: What’s the difference between a contested and an uncontested divorce? Do I need a family law attorney for a divorce?

A contested divorce means that there are family law issues that must be resolved before your divorce is finalized—and your family law attorney can be key to an effective resolution. In an uncontested divorce, the parties have already agreed—or believe that they’ve agreed—to all relevant matters. It’s always best to have a lawyer by your side in either situation. Since we handle these cases regularly, we might see something you have missed in an uncontested divorce.
